Itinerary
A delight to explore, Sydney Harbour is one of the most beautiful natural harbours in the world. Enjoy a panoramic drive along the sparkling blue waters, iconic attractions, hidden beaches and intriguing heritage.
The Rocks is a neighbourhood of historic laneways in the shadow of Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Home to the Sydney Observatory, this park has panoramic views of Sydney Harbour.
No trip to Sydney would be complete without taking the Sydney Harbour Bridge Walk from The Rocks to Milsons Point. Your guide will drop you at the Rocks and meet you on the other side.
Take a panoramic drive through the colorful streets of Kirribilli and see Kirribilli House and Admiralty House, the residences of the Prime Minister and Governor General of Australia.
Enjoy great views of the city skyline, Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
The Gothic-style St Mary's Catholic cathedral was built from local sandstone from 1821-1928.
Wrapped around Farm Cove at the edge of Sydney Harbour, the Gardens occupy one of Sydney's most spectacular positions.
Mrs Macquarie's Chair, otherwise known as Lady Macquarie's Chair, provides one of the best vantage points in Sydney.
Drive through Kings Cross, the old red-light district in Sydney! Lights, bars, and a touch of the city's wild side.
Go for a scenic drive through the lively streets of Rose Bay and catch glimpses of the marina.
Visit Watson's Bay and The Gap. Watsons Bay is located on the southern head of the entrance to Sydney Harbour.
Warm yellow-colored sheer cliffs and crashing waves dominate the view from The Gap Park. Walk along the scenic cliff top and enjoy the views of Tasman Sea and ships leaving Sydney Harbour.
Take a drive to Macquarie Lighthouse and enjoy the coastal views. Cruise through the area, and snap some pics. The lighthouse is a cool spot, a bit of history with a great backdrop.
With white sands, curling waves and sandstone cliffs, Bondi Beach is Australia's most famous beach and a world icon. You have time to explore Bondi Beach at your leisure and use this as your lunch stop.
Take the Bondi to Coogee walk and discover natural beauty on one of the best Sydney coastal walks. We will go for 20-30 mins walk finishing at Tamarama beach.
In Paddington, a trendy inner Sydney suburb, discover heritage-listed terrace houses, sophisticated art galleries, and colorful streets.

Leisa was our guide and picked us up at our hotel in Sydney. The day was quite busy but at the same time very relaxed. She was able to balance answering our questions while also providing insightful commentary. Highlights for me was walking across the Sydney bridge, fish and chips at Doyle’s (this was amazing) and the beach around Bondi. But to be honest everything was wonderful. I could not believe we did so much in 6 hrs.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, Graham! It was such a pleasure spending the day with you, Bonnie and Bernie and showing you the highlights and hidden gems of Sydney. The Harbour Bridge walk and fish and chips at Doyles are always a favourite — I'm so glad you loved it! Six hours really does fly when there's so much to see. I'd love to welcome you all back when you're next in Sydney! -- Leisa

Kori did a great job with touring us through Sidney. Lots of great sights and some wonderful walks, one across the Sidney bridge and the Bondi coastal walk. And Kori came well prepared with a list of restaurants for lunch, bottled water and umbrellas when necessary. A really great day!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review, Mike. We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your day exploring Sydney with Kori and getting out for those walks across the Harbour Bridge and along the Bondi coastal path. Thanks again for the lovely feedback, and we hope to see you back in Sydney again sometime 🙂
This was an excellent tour which took us to places we wouldn’t have got to on our own. Korhan was an excellent guide, and has really got under the skin of Sydney, sharing all sorts of knowledge with us. A thoroughly safe driver as he navigated through some very narrow streets. Thank you Korhan. We had a fantastic day. Wendy, Bri, Chris & Simon

We undertook this experience as a private tour. Daniel was a wonderful guide. He showed us all the major sights in Sydney and also several hidden gems. He turned out to be an excellent storyteller and an expert photographer. The vehicle was in a good condition. On the whole , we fully enjoyed the tour. Thanks a lot to the Daily Sydney Tours and Daniel.

Perfect day exploring Sydney. Flexed to meet the needs of our group and the weather. As well as the obvious took in a couple of gems that were only available at the time. Guide very knowledgeable with many extra facts and titbits thrown in.
